Romani Is Very Moved
"Liangyu! They're undead monsters, a horde of evil skeletons! No need to hold back anymore, just smash them to bits!"
"Yes, Master!"
On the battlefield, Qin Liangyu, clad in white with her silver spear, darted like a shooting star! She transformed into a white dragon, charging into the enemy ranks, leaving no foe standing in her path.
The Director stood not far off, a look of pleasure and pride on his face. Is this what it feels like for a Master to command a Servant? When fighting the French soldiers earlier, I had to hold back, which wasn't satisfying. Now, with monsters, there's no such concern. Charging left and right, killing them so they fall over themselves—this feeling…
"Ah~ It's so fulfilling~"
The long-lingering inner demon dissipated, and the Director clearly felt his control over Mana become more refined.
He raised a hand, and his fingertips glowed!
"Liangyu, I'll support you! Stardust!"
"Dududududu!"
Points of starlight shot out; one point of starlight was enough to shatter a skeleton. After all, the Director was a Lord's heir; his strength was not weak.
While the Director was sweeping the field, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash were struggling a bit in their fight.
"Hmph!"
Mash used her shield to strike the skeletons, almost taking them down in one hit, sometimes two. Her speed wasn't fast, and with the large number of skeletons, the rate of elimination was quite average.
Fortunately, she was incredibly durable, making her difficult for the skeletons to break through.
Fujimaru Ritsuka hid behind Mash. She didn't know Magecraft, and all she could do for now was quickly transfer Mana to Mash to keep her sustained. The two held on until Qin Liangyu charged in with her spear, quickly eliminating all the enemies.
"Are you alright?"
After Qin Liangyu dealt with the skeletons, the Director walked over, hands on his hips.
"Phew, thanks for the Lancer's support, otherwise we might not have held out."
Fujimaru Ritsuka said with a hint of lingering fear. She felt a bit self-conscious about her own strength at the moment. She had only made it through the last Singularity safely with the help of Cu Chulainn and Merlin, and now she was still relying on others.
"You've already done very well. As a shield soldier in the army, Mash, you blocked a large number of enemy attacks, buying valuable time for other teammates to eliminate the enemy. You deserve commendation for what you've achieved."
Qin Liangyu, having fought countless battles throughout her life, was most familiar with military formations and the strengths and weaknesses of different troop types. She wasn't making it up; although she was strong, the enemy numbers were too great. Without Mash, she wouldn't have been able to stop all the skeletons, only watch as they charged into the castle behind them, slaughtering the already exhausted soldiers.
"Hehe~ I… I just did what I had to do. It was Master who kept supporting me, allowing me to withstand the attacks."
Mash truly lived up to her reputation as a thoughtful companion, never forgetting to comfort her Master.
Sure enough, hearing Qin Liangyu and Mash's words, Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression improved a little. But then, a terrifying shriek came from the sky.
Romani: "Attention! A strong Mana signature is approaching! Very fast! Estimated to be a flying magical beast!"
Romani, who had been monitoring from the observation point, quickly spoke up.
Mash: "Doctor, are you talking about this guy?!"
A somewhat speechless Mash pointed at the Wyvern in the sky. The enemy is already right above us, and you're only notifying us now? Isn't that a bit late!
Romani: "Ahem! The equipment is still under maintenance, not in its best state. It's because the target is too fast that this happened. Everyone, be careful, this Wyvern is coming with malicious intent!"
No sooner had Romani finished speaking than the Wyvern swooped down. The four of them braced themselves to face the enemy. At this moment, a golden-haired figure emerged from the castle! In her hand, she held a military flag, and with a wave, a golden light fell upon Mash and Qin Liangyu. Their auras immediately increased significantly!
"Please lend me your strength! Repel the enemy!"
The golden-haired girl darted past everyone, using her flag as a spear to thrust at the flying Wyvern. Mash and Qin Liangyu looked back at their Master, and after receiving a signal, they also rushed out. The three of them worked together, fighting the Wyvern!
Inside the monitoring room, Romani stared at the golden-haired girl for a moment.
"Isn't that—"
"It's Jeanne d'Arc!"
"Huh?"
Romani looked back at Mo Shuying, his resentful gaze clearly blaming Mo Shuying for stealing his line.
"It's the real Jeanne d'Arc, not that wanton Dragon Witch. However, her Mana isn't strong, even hovering at the lowest edge for a Servant. What's going on? How can there be two Jeanne d'Arcs in this period?"
Merlin also stepped forward and said a lot. As soon as he finished speaking.
"Huh? Romani, where are you going?"
Da Vinci saw Romani squatting under the table, drawing circles on the ground with a ballpoint pen, muttering to himself.
"You guys said everything, it doesn't matter if I'm here or not… Hmph… I curse you all…"
Mo Shuying & Merlin: "…"
"You petty thing, look! The Wyvern's about to be dealt with. What's up with this Wyvern? Is it really that weak?"
Mo Shuying was a bit disdainful. This Wyvern felt weaker than some of the monsters he had defeated initially.
"It's not weak; it's just difficult for it not to lose when facing three Servants. But I have a feeling that the enemy definitely has many more monsters like this."
Merlin's prophecies were very powerful. If he said there were many Wyverns, there definitely were.
"I bet there are even stronger ones, maybe even an Evil Dragon or something. Otherwise, what would they call it, the Evil Dragon War, right?"
Mo Shuying indicated that he knew there was a Fafnir, but he just wasn't saying it. Heh, just for fun.
"Good point!"
Romani suddenly popped up, rushing to the computer and quickly pulling up a bunch of data on something called Evil Dragon.
"Speaking of Evil Dragons, this is probably the most famous one, right?"
Romani pointed to the Evil Dragon data, which showed Fafnir. Mo Shuying paused, then turned to look at Romani.
"Huh? Why are you staring at me like that?"
"I'm not doing anything."
"???"
Mo Shuying suspected Romani had already read the script; otherwise, how would he know the Evil Dragon was Fafnir?
"If it really is Fafnir, Romani, we need to prepare our pods as quickly as possible. Otherwise, if Fafnir appears, they might be in danger."
Merlin spoke up, and Romani nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we're repairing them as fast as we can, but these things are incredibly complex, and the specialized repair personnel were lost in the explosion. We're essentially fumbling our way through the repairs, so it's going to be slow."
With limited resources, Romani couldn't do much more.
However, Mo Shuying frowned at his words.
"Hold on, no specialized repair personnel? Fumbling your way through repairs? You're still treating us like guinea pigs! Last time, you promised it was foolproof, and then it wasn't. Now, I feel like it's a 'thousand failures, one nothing.' A thousand screw-ups and I'll be gone?"
Mo Shuying felt like he was in a shady operation.
"Uh, no, no! We're following the manual for repairs, and we'll conduct tests. There definitely won't be any problems."
Romani quickly explained. Just then, his communicator buzzed.
Romani answered it, finding it was the repair team.
"Hello? Deputy Director Romani? We've successfully assembled one pod!"
Romani was delighted, about to praise them, when—
"We just don't know why there are a bunch of extra parts, but it shouldn't affect its use."
Romani: "."
Mo Shuying: "."
